Chapter 1472: All Dead
....Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What if Prince Luoyang isn’t the old Prince’s biological son?” Eldest Brother Yan asked softly.
“Pfft!” Xia Junfeng spat out the tea in his mouth.
Qian Jiyun quickly s.h.i.+elded An Jiuyue from the dirty tea before looking at Xia Junfeng reproachfully.
Xia Junfeng was speechless.
Was this his fault? Eldest Brother Yan’s comment was too f*cking shocking.
The old Prince only had one legitimate son. His illegitimate ones either died of illness or were crippled, and only a few daughters remained. Yet there was also the possibility that Prince Luoyang wasn’t his son?
Wasn’t this joke a little overboard?
“Are you serious, Eldest Brother?” he asked Eldest Brother Yan uncertainly.
Without waiting for his reply, he looked at Qian Jiyun again. It seemed like he knew about this.
“So Prince Luoyang is also the old Emperor’s son?”
What a vicious move! Could the old Prince’s coffin lid hold? He had such a terrible biological brother and princess consort!
Most importantly, as far as he knew, the old Prince had never had the intention to fight for the throne. He had heard about it. If the old Prince had not had any intention of ascending to the throne back then, how could the old Emperor have obtained it so easily?
“Mhm.” Qian Jiyun nodded.
“And the Luoyang-Shao Residence is aware too?” Xia Junfeng asked again after getting the answer he wanted.
However, he immediately rejected the idea after some thought.
“No, no. How can the Luoyang-Shao Residence know about a secret like this? They’re definitely kept in the dark.”
“Master Shao knows. Over the years, he has secretly eliminated many opponents for Prince Luoyang, including several princes born to the old Emperor’s concubines. They were quietly poisoned,” Eldest Brother Yan said calmly.
Xia Junfeng gulped silently. “Eldest Brother, fortunately, you’re older than Prince Luoyang.”
He thought that if Eldest Brother Yan were not older, the old Emperor and the old Princess Consort would not have hooked up at that time, and perhaps they would not have had Eldest Brother Yan.
“You’re thinking too much.” Eldest Brother Yan was calmer than him. “My maternal clan isn’t enough for the Luoyang-Shao family to take a fancy to,” he said.
Upon hearing that, the corners of Xia Junfeng’s mouth twitched.
Finally, his mind cleared up. He recalled the princes and princesses who had died over the years. All of them were the sons and daughters of favored consorts. They also had powerful maternal clans to back them up.
The princes’ deaths were understandable, but those princesses had died so unfairly. Weren’t they just used as p.a.w.ns?
“Huff!” He exhaled heavily.
“But even so, the royal bloodline cannot be confused. Prince Luoyang is still the son of the old Prince. No matter how much support he receives from the Luoyang-Shao family, he won’t be able to sit on the throne, right?”
“What if all the old Emperor’s sons die?” Qian Jiyun asked.
“Mmph!” Xia Junfeng was horrified.
All dead? In this coup initiated by the old Emperor?
“Second Brother, are you saying that the old Emperor attacked the Eldest Prince and framed Eldest Brother, and all of this is related to Prince Luoyang? Did he do it?”
“Not exactly.” Eldest Brother Yan shook his head.
Although he did not interact much with the Prince Luoyang Residence, he understood that person’s character.
“Prince Luoyang is not that scheming. His mother and the Luoyang-Shao family must have done it. Father… must have known about it and secretly allowed it.”
